Selfie

© 2015 Mark Cote

how do I look
how is my hair
is the lighting right
or should I even care
when photoshop can make it real
no one knows how you feel

imagine who I am
when the shutter snaps
maybe famous
in a dream perhaps
when photoshop can make it real
no one knows how you feel

(chorus) Selfie
                  is it all just vanity
                  should we question your sanity
                  so many ways to say look at me
                  with just a change of scenery
                  selfie

(bridge) the colors that paint your fantasy
                  are all we will know
                  all you believe
                  in this world you perceive
                  that smile is all you need

reaching up and out
to take the shot
show the world
just what you've got
when photoshop can make it real
no one knows how you feel

(chorus)
